Named after a caterpillar, delivered as an extract

Cordyceps capsules from Vitalplant contain extract from Cordyceps sinensis, known in German as caterpillar fungus. The name is unusual enough to deserve an explanation.

Where the name comes from

Cordyceps sinensis grows wild on the Tibetan plateau, at altitudes between 3,000 and 5,000 meters. There, the fungus infects the larvae of root borers, grows through them, and in spring sends a slender, club-shaped stalk up from the ground.

The Tibetan name Yartsa Gunbu describes exactly that: summer grass, winter worm. Wild-collected specimens are among the most expensive natural products of all and are traded by weight.

Taxonomically, the species has been correctly called Ophiocordyceps sinensis since 2007. The older name Cordyceps sinensis has remained in trade and is therefore also listed on our ingredients list.

What we are allowed to say about it — and what we are not

For medicinal mushrooms, not a single health claim is approved in the EU. The relevant applications have been sitting unresolved for years on the so-called on-hold list, neither approved nor rejected.

We could fill this limbo with hints. We do not. What appears on this page is the species, origin, and extract amount, and that can be verified.

Positioning in the range and quality

Cordyceps is the only one of our medicinal mushrooms without organic certification. It is also the only one not included in the Organic Medicinal Mushroom Complex. If you want it, you need these capsules.

The extract sits in a vegan capsule shell made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, without anti-caking agents and without filler. It is filled in amber glass because brown glass largely blocks the UV portion of light.

Fermented, fiber, and medicinal mushrooms in one package

Darm Vital brings together three products from our gut and liver theme world, each taking a different approach: a fermented herbal elixir, a fiber blend with medicinal mushrooms, and natural psyllium husks. More affordable in a bundle than ordered separately.

What’s in the package

Organic Darm Elixir fermented drink. A liquid concentrate made from 22 fermented ingredients in organic quality. During fermentation, microorganisms break down the plant-based raw materials and transform them into a characteristically tangy drink, completely free from additives.

Organic Darm Vital powder. Combines seven fiber-rich superfoods with two organic medicinal mushrooms in a powder for shakes or muesli.

Organic psyllium husks. Finely ground, natural husks from India. Psyllium husks are among the most fiber-rich foods of all and swell up considerably when mixed with liquid.

Fiber in everyday life

The German Nutrition Society recommends at least 30 g of fiber per day, a value many people do not reach in everyday life. The three products in this package can be flexibly spread throughout the day, from the elixir in the morning to the psyllium husks in muesli. Important: always drink enough with psyllium husks.

Composition and quality

All three products are certified organic and come unchanged from our range, without additives and with independent laboratory testing for each batch. Details on recommended intake and preparation can be found on the product pages.

14 mg iron from bisglycinate with acerola and lactoferrin

Iron is considered the mineral that is hardest to absorb. That is why Vitalplant iron glycinate capsules combine three carefully matched ingredients in one capsule.

The three ingredients

Iron bisglycinate, 51.9 mg per capsule. This provides 14 mg of elemental iron, which equals 100 percent of the nutrient reference value. In bisglycinate, the iron is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine, a structure known as a chelate.

Acerola extract, 320 mg, providing 80 mg of natural vitamin C. In nutrition science, vitamin C and iron are traditionally considered together, which is why both are included here in one capsule.

Lactoferrin, 101 mg. An iron-binding protein that occurs naturally in milk. It is obtained from whey.

What iron and vitamin C do

Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin and to normal oxygen transport in the body. It also contributes to normal cognitive function and plays a role in cell division.

Vitamin C increases iron absorption. This claim, like the iron claims mentioned above, is listed in the EU Register of authorized health claims.

Iron Glycinate Capsules: composition and quality

Important note: This product contains lactoferrin from milk and is therefore not vegan. If you are looking for a purely plant-based source of iron, you will find it in our Iron Vegan capsules with curry leaf extract.

The formula consists of four ingredients: acerola extract, lactoferrin, iron bisglycinate, and the capsule shell made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. No fillers, no anti-caking agents, no colorings. Packed in amber glass. Every batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

12 mg of iron from curry leaf extract

Most iron supplements work with mineral iron salts. Vitalplant's Iron Vegan Capsules take a different approach: the iron comes entirely from a plant extract.

Iron from the plant instead of the salt

400 mg curry leaf extract per capsule, standardized to 3 percent iron. This provides 12 mg of iron, which corresponds to 86 percent of the nutrient reference value.

The iron is present in a plant matrix. It was not added as an isolated salt, but comes from the plant itself, where it is naturally bound.

Curry leaf is not curry. Murraya koenigii is a tree from the rue family, botanically related to citrus fruits. The aromatic leaves are cooked fresh in South Indian cuisine. It has nothing to do with curry powder, a spice blend.

What iron does

Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin and to normal oxygen transport in the body. It also contributes to normal cognitive function, normal energy metabolism, and normal function of the immune system.

Iron also plays a role in cell division. All of the stated claims are listed in the EU Register of authorized health claims.

Iron Vegan Capsules: composition and quality

The formula consists of two ingredients: curry leaf extract and the capsule shell made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. No fillers, no anti-caking agents, no colorants, no sugar. The product is vegan and gluten-free, filled in amber glass. Each batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

If you take medication, please speak to your doctor or pharmacist before taking ginseng. Details on recommended intake and ingredients can be found on the product pages.

Three essentials for women's balance

Frauen Vital is designed for women in the years leading up to menopause and brings together three products that are often ordered together during this stage of life: a plant-based women's complex, gentle magnesium, and iron in a gentle dose. Save compared to ordering them individually.

What's in the bundle

Luna Balance Capsules. This complex combines chasteberry and saffron with the KSM-66® branded ashwagandha ingredient, feverfew, coenzyme Q10, magnesium, zinc, and a full spectrum of B vitamins.

Magnesium Glycinate Capsules. Magnesium in chelated form, bound to the amino acid glycine. This compound is considered especially gentle on the stomach and provides 280 mg of magnesium per daily serving.

Iron Glycinate Capsules. 14 mg of iron as well-tolerated iron bisglycinate, combined with natural vitamin C from acerola cherries and lactoferrin. Iron is the nutrient most commonly in short supply for women before menopause.

What the nutrients do

Iron helps reduce tiredness and fatigue and supports the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin. Vitamin C increases iron absorption. Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity, while magnesium contributes to normal psychological function. These claims are listed in the EU Register of authorized health claims.

Ingredients and quality

All three products come unchanged from our range: free from unnecessary additives, packaged in amber glass, and independently laboratory-tested batch by batch. Luna Balance and Magnesium Glycinate are vegan; Iron Glycinate contains milk-derived lactoferrin. Details on recommended use and ingredients can be found on the product pages.

Vitalplant is led by Christian Lazar, a licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at Stern Apotheke.

Three essentials for menopause

Frauen Vital 50+ is the counterpart to our Frauen Vital bundle, designed for women going through menopause: a plant-based menopause complex, pure collagen, and vitamins D3 and K2 in drop form. The bundle costs less than ordering each product separately.

What's in the bundle

Meno Vital Capsules. The complex combines wild yam, reishi, red clover and sage, four ingredients with a long tradition of use in women's health around menopause.

Collagen Powder. Type I and III collagen hydrolysate from pasture-raised animals, unflavoured and easy to dissolve. Collagen is the body's most abundant structural protein, and the body's own production declines with age.

Vitamin D3 + K2 Drops. Vegan vitamin D3 from lichen, combined with vitamin K2, dissolved in oil and easy to dispense drop by drop.

What vitamins D and K do

Bone health becomes a key concern during menopause. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and normal muscle function. Vitamin K also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.

Composition and quality

All three products are unchanged from our range, with no unnecessary additives and independent laboratory testing for every batch. The collagen is of animal origin; the other products are vegan. You'll find details on recommended use and composition on the product pages.

360 mg Hericium extract with 30 percent polysaccharides, plus 270 mg Hericium powder and 270 mg Tremella fuciformis extract. Tremella is a jelly-like mushroom that is also used as an edible mushroom in East Asia.

180 mg phosphatidylserine and 120 mg citicoline. Both belong to the phospholipids or their precursors, and thus to the building blocks of cell membranes.

60 mg Ginkgo biloba extract in a 45:1 ratio, standardized to 24 percent flavone glycosides and 6 percent terpene lactones. Also included are 120 mg each of pine bark and larch bark extract, plus 15 mg black pepper extract.

What the micronutrients do

Pantothenic acid contributes to normal mental performance. Zinc contributes to normal cognitive function.

Thiamine and vitamin B12 contribute to the normal function of the nervous system and to normal psychological function. All of the statements listed are included in the EU Register of authorized health claims.

There are no authorized claims for the plant and mushroom extracts, for phosphatidylserine, or for citicoline. For these, we state the amount and standardization.

Brain Complex capsules: composition and quality

Building Blocks and Cellular Energy for the Brain

Brain Vital brings together three products from our Brain and Nerves range: a nutrient complex with citicoline, vegan omega-3 fatty acids, and pure creatine. Save compared with ordering each product separately.

What’s in the Bundle

Brain Complex Capsules. The formula combines selected plant and mushroom extracts with citicoline and choline, B vitamins, and zinc. Citicoline is a naturally occurring choline compound that can be used directly in this form.

Vegan Omega-3 Capsules. The DHA and EPA come from microalgae oil, the original source of both fatty acids, and are supplemented with vitamin D3. No fish products are used.

Creatine Powder. Pure creatine monohydrate with no additives and a neutral taste. Creatine is a naturally occurring compound involved in cellular energy metabolism. At a daily serving of 5 g, the 300-g pouch lasts exactly 60 days.

What the Nutrients Do

A daily intake of 250 mg of DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function. Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the nervous system and normal psychological function. Both claims are listed in the EU Register of authorised health claims.

Ingredients and Quality

All three products are unchanged from our regular range: vegan, without unnecessary additives, and independently laboratory-tested in every batch. For details on recommended use and composition, see the individual product pages.

Vitalplant is backed by Christian Lazar, a licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at Stern Apotheke.

26 ingredients with vitamin C, manganese, and copper

The Joint Complex from Vitalplant is the most comprehensive formula in our range: 26 ingredients in two daily capsules, from glucosamine and hyaluronic acid to twelve vitamins and eight minerals.

What’s inside the daily dose

700 mg glucosamine and 460 mg vegan chondroitin alternative. The glucosamine is available as hydrochloride in vegan quality, and the chondroitin alternative is derived from algae extract. Classic chondroitin comes from animal cartilage.

50 mg hyaluronic acid and 50 mg MSM. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide that occurs naturally in connective tissue. MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane, an organic sulfur compound.

Twelve vitamins and eight minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin K2, zinc, manganese, copper, selenium, chromium, molybdenum, and iodine. Plus 10 mg quercetin, 10 mg resveratrol, and 2 mg boron.

What the nutrients do

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for normal cartilage function and for normal bones. Collagen is the structural protein that cartilage and connective tissue are largely made of.

Manganese contributes to normal connective tissue formation, copper to the maintenance of normal connective tissue. Vitamin K and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal bones.

All claims listed above are included in the EU Register of authorized health claims. For glucosamine, chondroitin, hyaluronic acid, and MSM, there are no authorized claims. For these, we state the amount and source.

Joint Complex capsules: composition and quality

Packing 26 ingredients into two capsules is a matter of formula density. The capsule shell is made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Glucosamine, chondroitin alternative, and MSM are vegan, making the product completely plant-based. Bottled in amber glass, each batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

Behind Vitalplant is Christian Lazar, a licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at Stern Apotheke.

Three building blocks for joints and bones

Joints Vital combines three products that complement each other: a comprehensive joint complex, highly concentrated Boswellia extract, and vitamins D3 and K2 in drop form. More affordable as a bundle than buying separately.

What’s in the bundle

Joint Complex Capsules. The formula combines glucosamine, a vegan chondroitin alternative, MSM, and hyaluronic acid with selected micronutrients. This means it covers the best-known building blocks of joint support in one product.

Boswellia Capsules. The extract from the resin of the Boswellia tree is standardized to 90 percent boswellic acids, which is the level used to measure high-quality Boswellia extracts.

Vitamin D3 + K2 Drops. Vegan vitamin D3 from lichens, combined with vitamin K2, dissolved in oil and dosable drop by drop.

What vitamin D and K do

Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and the maintenance of normal muscle function. Vitamin K also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. Both claims are listed in the EU Register of authorized health claims. Since vitamin D is produced by the body mainly through sunlight, ensuring adequate intake in the darker months is a common concern.

Composition and quality

All three products come directly from our range, without unnecessary additives, and with independent laboratory testing for each batch. You can find details on the recommended intake and composition on the product pages.

Vitalplant is led by Christian Lazar, a licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at Stern Apotheke.

Pure L-Glutamine, with no additives and no promises

Glutamine powder from Vitalplant has one ingredient: L-glutamine. No flavouring, no sweetener, no filler, no blend with other amino acids.

What L-glutamine is

L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the human body. It is found in both blood plasma and muscle tissue at a much higher concentration than any other.

Biochemically, it is classified as a non-essential amino acid because the body can produce it itself. Through food, it is found in all protein-rich foods, bound within their proteins.

This is where the information we are allowed to provide ends. No health claims have been approved for L-glutamine in the EU. We could fill the gap with hints, as is common in this product category. Instead, we state what can be verified: the substance, the amount, and the purity.

A peculiarity in preparation

L-glutamine is not permanently stable in aqueous solution. It breaks down over time, and the warmer and more acidic the liquid is, the faster this happens.

In practice, that means: mix it and drink it promptly. A shake prepared in the morning and drunk at midday is no longer the same. Cold or lukewarm drinks are preferable to hot ones.

The 300 ml in the recommended serving is no coincidence. L-glutamine is one of the less soluble amino acids, and in a small glass some of it quickly remains at the bottom.

Purity and processing

The powder is white, fine-crystalline, and tastes almost neutral with a slightly sweet note.

Filled in a resealable stand-up pouch. Store in a cool, dry place, do not freeze, and protect from direct sunlight. Anyone who also uses our Pre Workout+ already gets 4 g of L-glutamine per serving from it.

Guggul resin extract with 5 percent guggulsterones

Like frankincense and myrrh, guggul is a tree resin, not an herb and not a root. The Guggul Extract capsules from Vitalplant contain a standardized resin extract with 5 percent guggulsterones.

How guggul is obtained

The resin comes from Commiphora wightii, a thorny shrub from the dry regions of India and Pakistan. The bark is incised, and the sap that emerges hardens in the air into yellowish-brown lumps. These are collected and further processed.

Guggulsterone as a measure. They are the characteristic components of the resin and serve as the standardization value. At 500 mg extract per capsule and a standardization of 5 percent, this results in 25 mg guggulsterones.

Why standardization matters especially here. Natural resins vary considerably in composition depending on the tree, location, and harvest year. A standardized extract compensates for these fluctuations.

Commiphora wightii: plant and extraction

The guggul shrub rarely grows higher than four meters and withstands long dry periods. It belongs to the family of balsam trees, the same family as frankincense and myrrh.

Guggul has long been known in Ayurvedic herbal medicine and is also called Guggulu there. Because the populations regenerate slowly, the raw material is now increasingly sourced from controlled cultivation instead of wild harvesting.

Guggul Extract capsules: composition and quality

The formula consists of two components: the guggul resin extract and the capsule shell made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. No fillers, no anti-caking agents, no colorings. The product is vegan and gluten-free, filled in amber glass. Every batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

Twelve nutrients in one daily capsule

Skin, hair, and nails are largely made up of keratin, and the body continually rebuilds them. The Skin Hair Nails capsules from Vitalplant provide twelve nutrients in a single daily capsule.

What’s in the daily capsule

Horsetail extract, 290 mg. The extract is standardized to seven percent silica. Horsetail is one of the oldest still-existing plant genera and stores silica in unusually high concentrations in its cell walls.

Acerola extract, 90 mg. This provides 23 mg of natural vitamin C, which corresponds to 28 percent of the nutrient reference value. The acerola cherry is one of the fruits richest in vitamin C.

Ten vitamins and minerals. Biotin at 720 micrograms, zinc at 5 mg, plus niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin A, E, B1, B2, B6, B12, and folic acid. Ten of these are at 100 percent of the nutrient reference value or above.

What the nutrients do

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin. Collagen is the structural protein that gives connective tissue its strength.

Niacin, vitamin A, and riboflavin contribute to the maintenance of normal skin. Vitamin E helps protect cells from oxidative stress. Zinc contributes to normal DNA synthesis and normal protein synthesis.

All of the statements listed are included in the EU Register of authorized health claims.

Skin Hair Nails capsules: composition and quality

Packing twelve nutrients into one capsule is a matter of formulation density. Even so, the formula contains no fillers, flow agents, or colorings. The product is vegan and filled in amber glass. Each batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

Behind Vitalplant is Christian Lazar, a licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at Stern Pharmacy.

Eleven ingredients with vitamin C, E, B1 and folic acid

Vitalplant's Heart Complex combines eleven ingredients: secondary plant compounds, an amino acid compound, coenzyme Q10 and four micronutrients. One capsule twice daily.

What’s in one capsule

100 mg quercetin. A flavonoid that naturally occurs in onions, apples and capers. Plus 5 mg OPC from grape seeds and 2.5 mg resveratrol, both also secondary plant compounds from the flavonoid family.

50 mg acetylcysteine and 50 mg coenzyme Q10. Acetylcysteine is an acetylated form of the amino acid cysteine. Coenzyme Q10 is present as ubiquinone, its shelf-stable form.

25 mg green tea extract and 1 mg carotenoids. Carotenoids are the pigments that give carrots, tomatoes and peppers their color.

The four micronutrients: 100 mg vitamin C, 24 mg vitamin E, 1.1 mg vitamin B1 and 400 µg folic acid.

What the micronutrients do

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels. Collagen is the structural protein that gives vessel walls their strength.

Vitamin C and vitamin E help protect cells from oxidative stress. Folate contributes to normal blood formation and has a role in cell division. All listed statements are included in the EU Register of authorised health claims.

No authorised claims exist for quercetin, OPC, resveratrol, acetylcysteine, coenzyme Q10, green tea extract and carotenoids. For these, we state the amount and source.

Heart Complex capsules: composition and quality

Eleven ingredients in one formula, without fillers, anti-caking agents or colourings. The capsule shell is made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. The product is vegan and gluten-free, filled in brown glass. Each batch is tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory.

Nine ingredients with vitamin C, zinc, and selenium

Vitalplant's Immun Complex combines two mushroom extracts, beta-glucans from brewer's yeast, two plant extracts, and three micronutrients. The daily dose is three capsules.

What’s in the daily dose

600 mg turkey tail mushroom extract, standardized to 30 percent polysaccharides. Trametes versicolor is a tree fungus whose concentrically colored fruiting bodies resemble a turkey tail, hence the English name Turkey Tail.

400 mg Yestimun®, a raw material from brewer's yeast with 80 percent beta-glucans. This yields 320 mg beta-glucans. These polysaccharides are found in yeasts, mushrooms, and grains.

300 mg reishi extract, also standardized to 30 percent polysaccharides. Plus 200 mg andrographis extract with 30 percent andrographolide and 200 mg echinacea extract.

The three micronutrients. 160 mg vitamin C from PureWay-C®, 30 mg zinc from bisglycinate, and 80 µg selenium from selenomethionine. Supplemented with 10 mg black pepper extract.

What vitamin C, zinc, and selenium do

Vitamin C, zinc, and selenium all help protect cells from oxidative stress. Vitamin C also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Zinc contributes to normal DNA synthesis and plays a role in cell division. Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function. All stated claims are listed in the EU Register of authorised health claims.

There are no authorised claims for the mushroom and plant extracts. For these, we state the amount and standardization.

Vitamin C 1000 Capsules. 1,000 mg of vitamin C from PureWay-C® per daily dose of two capsules.

Vitamin D3+ Capsules. Vitamin D3 at a dose of 2000 IU, combined with vitamin K2 and magnesium. Since the body produces vitamin D primarily through exposure to sunlight, getting enough is often a concern during the darker months.

What the nutrients do

Vitamins C and D, zinc, and selenium each contribute to the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin C also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue, while zinc helps protect cells from oxidative stress. These claims are listed in the EU Register of authorised health claims.

Ingredients and quality
